Tonight has been kinda busy :)

My little sister and I ended up making bleach shirts for the 4th.  It is our first ones and hers is way cute!!!  We cut out stars out of card board and tore off the front paper so it was ribbed.  Then we also tried the sponge (tricky) and she also had an outline.

We used bleach pens and liquid bleach

 My little sisters, which is totally cute~
My bleach mess!!!

The recipe is here and it is so yummy!!!  Let's hope it turns out...


It taste like a mixture of bit-o-honey candy and big hunks....  It's for my family get together on the 4th of July.  I'm excited!!!!!


The mixture of Condensed sweetened milk and butter, after this every thing went pretty fast and sticky ;)




Next time I am using the chunky peanut butter, it'll be way better

I feel like I haven't posted forever!!!  I have been kinda busy, I took some amazing pictures if my cousin and his family at the Salt Lake Temple where they were sealed on Friday for eternity.  Then I had to edit them...  Fast Forward and here we are...

My little sister and I decided we were going to make these cute little windsocks.  It was a great idea from *Random thoughts of a Super Mom she has awesome ideas there so don't forget to check her out.

Now onto my Windsocks....

Items needed...

Flower Pot- or a tin can
White star die cuts
White & Red 1 inch ribbon
and string


 (the pics are missing the ribbon, but we got red and white ribbon)

Modge Podge and a glue gun...

Our flower pots were a light blue, so we decided to spray paint them a nice Royal Blue

Yummy Chicken Recipe

Tonight we had a wonderful Mushroom, Bacon, Dijon Chicken...  Oh my it was wonderful and can be found Here.  I changed the recipe just a bit.  I added 1/2 c of yellow onions instead of dried onions.  And I put the whole dressing on the chicken to cook. 

Travis said that this was the best chicken recipe he has ever had!!!  I hope you enjoy :)  I sure did!

PomPom Door Hanger

Here is my festive door hanger for the fourth...  It is really easy and here are the pics...
 First you need to cut out 9 circles, I used a 32oz cup top for mine.
Take a circle and fold it half and then a quarter and sew the point into the middle of the circle.  Keep going around on both sides and you get this.





I found the idea here with really good instructions.  I hope you enjoyed the post :)  Have a great weeked

Here are some items I used, some blocks that I had saved, mod podge, scissors to cute my prints if they are too big, a foam brush and a cup of water.  And my prints of coarse...

 I stained my pieces of wood with some left over stain

 I put the foam brush in the water a squeezed the mod podge onto the brick I put a layer on and then the print out that I printed on card stock.  Then I put a layer of mod podge on top of it.



 They turned out pretty awesome!!!

Smores Brownies

I was glancing though other blogs and I saw this and thought it would be wonderful for FHE  dessert.  So I got a brownie mix, put crushed graham crackers on top and then marshmellows.  And this is how it turned out!!!




I suggest cooking them half way and then putting the crackers and marshmallows on...    They wer still good though...
